Just out in Foreign Policy is my review of three of the crop of 2023 — Michael Lewis’ Going Infinite, Zeke Faux’s Number Go Up and Peter Howson’s Let Them Eat Crypto. [Foreign Policy, paywalled]

This was written over November and delivered to Foreign Policy in early December. But the paper’s been a little busy with the war in Gaza and so forth. Thankfully it’s still applicable.

($5-and-up patrons got to read the draft version two months ago. The bit about how John Jay Ray turned out right about everything got cut for space, sadly.)

I was also going to do Ben Mackenzie and Jacob Silverman’s Easy Money — but that already got a great Foreign Policy review in November! From the American Enterprise Institute, no less. And I was already coming up to 3,000 words. [Foreign Policy, 2023, paywalled]

At least it’s a change from just renders of gold bitcoins.
